Goose Creek CISD September 2024

GC2035 COMMITTEE NEXT MEETING SEPTEMBER 10TH

Goose Creek CISD received over 170 applications for the newly created Goose Creek 2035 (GC2035). The committee’s purpose is to evaluate, identify, and prioritize the needs of the school district and provide a platform for community members to offer input and stay informed about the district’s plans for the future. The Board of Trustees oversaw the selection process, as each was tasked with picking up to 15 committee members from each of their districts. This week, the GC2035 committee came together for its first meeting at IMPACT Early College High School. Dr. Randal O’Brien, Superintendent of Schools for GCCISD, opened the meeting by thanking attendees for their service to the district. Kendall David, Executive Director of Community Engagement, welcomed the committee members and explained that among them, table groups also included students and campus principals. “We have incredible

high school students to share what school looks like day to day in the schools. We also have our GCCISD principals who know what it’s like to work in our buildings every day.” The GC2035 will meet 7 times this semester to work on the long range facilities plan in various parts. The first meeting, labeled as “Part One”, included introducing the committee members to the long range facilities plan components, and reviewing the curation report, educational specifications, and assessment work. The committee was provided multiple opportunities throughout the night for “table talk” and to ask questions to the group as a whole. The second GC2035 Committee meeting is scheduled for September 10th.
